The Science of Gut Health | Dr. Robynne Chutkan

Why it matters for mental health; how to make improvements without succumbing to snake oil; and why you should be looking at your poop.

Dr. Robynne Chutkan is a board certified gastroenterologist and the author of the four books Gutbliss, The Microbiome Solution, The Bloat Cure, and The Anti-Viral Gut. She's also the host of The Gutbliss Podcast.
